Surround yourself with the beauty of nature in Iquitos, Peru — it's easy. Heliconia Amazon River Lodge lives up to its name. Not only will you see plenty of the namesake tropical flower 'Heliconia,' you'll also enjoy easy access to the surrounding islands, lagoons, and rainforests. The local wildlife are as enchanting as the scenery — birders will have a field day; pink dolphins call the local waters home; and there's no telling what kinds of tree-dwelling and tiny creatures you'll find scampering amidst the jungle. At Heliconia Amazon River Lodge, your accommodations are part of your adventure.

Fun fact: Iquitos, Peru is both the largest city situated within the Peruvian rainforest, and the largest city to be inaccessible by road. If you're going to stay in the heart of the Amazon, it should come as no surprise that you'll need to make the voyage by plane or boat. That's nothing to be disgruntled about though; take pleausre in the journey when you get an aerial view of the Amazon Rainforest from your plane. The sight of winding rivers making their way through dense forests is rather incredible. Speaking of the rivers, if you're making the voyage by boat, take a moment to appreciate the fact that you are cruising down the waters of one of the world's most precious resources.

Need an example of what kind of vacation you can look forward to during your stay? Here's a 3 day/2 night itinerary brief of an Amazonian Adventure at Heliconia Lodge:
